What is another word for poor countries?

Answer 1

third-world nations

the origin of this term dates back to the emperial ages when the status of countries were labelled according to their ability to control other nations, and those countries which came under such subjugation were typically in "third-worlds," a European term for less technologically developed countries with foreign cultures and languages.

then those countries which were part of the "third world" did not develop as rapidly as "first world" countries largely due to the lack of autonomy, and countries from the third world became synonymous with relatively poor countries, hence the modern usage of the phrase.
